The roads down here are groomed quite well, so we have our drivers out delivering,” said Karin Allen, controller for Harmon’s & Barton’s in Westbrook. “A lot of businesses are closed today, though, so we’re going to have to get a lot of deliveries out tomorrow.”Allen said it was quiet in the store Monday, and she expects the store to get “bombed” with phone calls and walk-in traffic Tuesday once people finish shoveling. She anticipated close to 1,000 deliveries on Valentine’s Day.“Mother Nature doesn’t know that tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, so it’s going to be pretty crazy tomorrow,” she said. “Everybody calls at the last minute.”Scott O’Brien, owner of Augusta Florist, said he stayed at a hotel in the capital city Sunday rather than be forced to drive from his home in Waterville to his shop on Mount Vernon Avenue in a blizzard Monday morning. He picked up a few of his designers on his way to the store from the hotel and was busy filling orders since early Monday morning.He said they weren’t doing any deliveries Monday because of the storm, but will have extra drivers contracted to help make all the deliveries by the end of the day Tuesday.“Today is normally a big delivery day, and the phones are starting to ring here now,” O’Brien said. “I’m sure it’ll be a madhouse here tomorrow with people parked all along the avenue.”But he said that even with his fresh stock, he expects to lose thousands of dollars in business because of the storm.He much prefers Mother’s Day.“It’s on a Sunday in May, so you have a few days before to make sure it gets to mom by then,” O’Brien said. “If you’re a florist in Miami, you’re not as stressed today.”He also likes it when Valentine’s Day falls on a weekday because the Legislature is usually in session and staffers fill the state offic... http://www.pressherald.com/2017/02/13/maine-florists-expect-a-blizzard-of-valentines-day-activity-after-mondays-snow-delay/

By Rick Armstrong, producer and Gerald Owens, anchor/reporterRaleigh, N.C. — Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, weddings and funerals keep many florists in business. When the heartfelt emotions that the flowers convey are over, it's typically time for the flowers to be carted off to the dump.Now, "The Flower Shuttle" organizers and volunteers delay that trip to the landfill so that those flowers have another chance to shine.Every Tuesday morning, Raleigh Moravian Church becomes a recycling center for those blooms that have yet to lose their full appeal."Nothing of potential value in the operation is wasted," volunteer Mary Currin explained as she pointed to buckets of flower tubes, rubber bands and preservative packets.
